INTRODUcTION
Machine Description
Manual accuracy
We are proud to provide a high-quality owner’s
manual with your new machine!
the Model t10727 is a 12" slip roll that mounts
in a sturdy bench-mounted vise instead of being
directly fastened to a workbench. this provides
you with the strength and stability you need when
forming sheet metal—without sacrificing precious
workbench space or requiring time-consuming
setups before operating.
We made every effort to be exact with the instruc-
tions, specifications, drawings, and photographs
contained inside. sometimes we make mistakes,
but our policy of continuous improvement also
means that sometimes the machine you receive
will be slightly different than what is shown in
the manual.
the slip roll has three specially positioned metal
rollers to make bends, cones, and cylinders from
sheet metal. the rollers have grooves at one end
that also allow wire to be rolled into various circles
or curves.
if you find this to be the case, and the difference
between the manual and machine leaves you
confused about a procedure, check our website
for an updated version. We post current manuals
and manual updates for free on our website at
www.grizzly.com.
the slip roll has a hand crank on one end that
the operator uses to rotate the rollers as they
feed the sheet metal into the slip roll. two sets of
adjustment knobs allow the operator to adjust the
spacing distance between certain rollers to either
control the radius of ends or accommodate vary-
ing thicknesses of sheet metal or wire.
Alternatively, you can call our technical support
for help. Before calling, please write down the
Manufacture Date and Serial Number stamped
into the machine id label (see below). this infor-
mation helps us determine if updated documenta-
tion is available for your machine.

cleanup
Site considerations
The unpainted surfaces of your machine are
coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.
This rust preventative works extremely well, but it
will take a little time to clean.
Workbench Load
refer to Specifications on Page 3 for the
weight of your machine. some workbenches may
require additional reinforcement to support both
the machine and materials.
Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your
machine. The time you spend doing this now will
give you a better appreciation for the proper care
of your machine's unpainted surfaces.
Placement Location
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery when establishing a location for
your new machine. see figure 2 for the minimum
working clearances.
There are many ways to remove this rust preven-
tative, but the following steps work well in a wide
variety of situations. Always follow the manufac-
turer’s instructions with any cleaning product you
use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated
area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.
Vise
Before cleaning, gather the following:
•
•

Disposable Rags
Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)
Safety glasses & disposable gloves
Plastic paint scraper (optional)

2. Coat the rust preventative with a liberal
amount of cleaner/degreaser, then let it soak
for 5–10 minutes.
children and visitors may be
seriously injured if unsuper-
vised around this machine.
Lock entrances to the shop
or disable start switch or
power connection to prevent
unsupervised use.
3. Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner/degreas-
er is effective, the rust preventative will wipe
off easily. If you have a plastic paint scraper,
scrape off as much as you can first, then wipe
off the rest with the rag.
4. Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,
then coat all unpainted surfaces with a quality
metal protectant to prevent rust.
NOTICE
Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as
acetone or brake parts cleaner, that may
damage painted surfaces.

assembly
Mounting in Vise
Except for the crank handle and the workpiece
support, the Model t10727 has been assembled
and adjusted at the factory.
the forces exerted on the slip roll during operation
are substantial. the slip roll must be firmly secured
in a vise (see figure 5 for an example) that is sol-
idly attached to a workbench that will support the
weight and dynamic forces of the operation (refer
to Page 18 for options from grizzly).
To complete the assembly:
1. thread the handle into the crank arm and
tighten with a screwdriver, as shown in
figure 3.
Make sure you have a vise secured to a work-
bench, then mount the slip roll by tightening the
vise jaws against the lug provided at the bottom
of the slip roll.
Note: Use pieces of cardboard, wood, or padded
jaw faces between the vise jaws and the vise lug
to prevent damage to the slip roll.

2. Use the thickness adjustment knobs to adjust
the height of the upper roller so the workpiece
fits between the upper and lower rollers, as
illustrated in figure 7.
flat Rolling
the Model t10727 slip roll can be used to flat
roll sheet metal up to 20 gauge mild steel. this is
done to flatten or slightly reduce the thickness of
workpieces.
3. rotate the thickness adjustment knobs clock-
wise in even amounts to lower the upper roll-
er until the workpiece is held snug between
the rollers.
When you raise and lower the upper roller with
the thickness adjustment knobs, it is important
to keep the upper and lower rollers parallel by
adjusting the knobs in even amounts. this keeps
the space and pressure even along the length of
the rollers.
4. turn the hand crank counterclockwise to
back the workpiece out of the rollers. set the
workpiece aside for now.
5. rotate the thickness adjustment knobs clock-
wise five increments on the dials (0.25mm)
to slightly lower the upper roller and increase
roller pressure.
Pinching/crushing

6. place the front of the workpiece on the
workpiece support. slowly rotate the hand
crank clockwise to feed the workpiece through
the rollers, as illustrated in figure 8.
To reduce the risk of inju-
ry, keep hands, fingers, or
other body parts away from
the rollers during opera-
tion.
To flat roll a workpiece:
Workpiece
1. rotate the radius adjustment knob clockwise
to lower the rear roller below the workpiece
path, as illustrated in figure 7. this will pre-
vent the rear roller from bending a curve in
the workpiece as it is fed through the slip roll.

creating bends
Pinching/crushing
hazard
the Model t10727 slip roll can easily create con-
stant-radius bends in sheet metal up to 20 gauge.
To reduce the risk of inju-
ry, keep hands, fingers, or
other body parts away from
the rollers during opera-
tion.
Note: The method for creating a specific radius is
a trial-and-error process. Due to the many varia-
tions among metal workpieces, no single position-
ing will create the same curve on all materials.
We recommend that you experiment with scrap
material before using the actual workpiece until
you find the settings that will achieve your desired
curve.
3. turn the hand crank clockwise to feed the
workpiece until its leading edge is just above
the rear roller, as illustrated in figure 10.
To create a bend in a workpiece:
1. Use the thickness adjustment knobs to adjust
the height of the upper roller so that you can
place the workpiece between the upper and
lower rollers, as illustrated in figure 9.

4. rotate the radius adjustment knobs coun-
terclockwise to raise the rear roller until
the desired radius bend is reached (see
figure 11).
creating cylinders
the Model t10727 slip roll can be used to easily
and accurately create cylinders.
Note: You must turn the radius adjustment
knobs in equal amounts so the rear roller
is always parallel with the other rollers.
Otherwise, a larger radius will be created on
one end of the workpiece, resulting in a cone
or spiral shape.
to make sure the ends of the completed cylinder
meet correctly, use the formula below to calculate
the required beginning workpiece length.
c = π D
c = Circumference
(length of Material needed)
Workpiece
π = pi (Approximately 3.142)
D = diameter of Cylinder
Example: suppose you want to create a 6" diam-
eter cylinder. you would use the above formula as
follows:
CCW
c = π d
c = 3.142 x 6"
c = 18.852"
figure 11. setting the bend radius.
the result of 18.852" indicates that you need to
start with a piece of sheet metal that is approxi-
mately 18.852" in length in order to create a 6"
diameter cylinder.
5. rotate the hand crank clockwise to feed the
workpiece completely through the rollers and
produce the bend (see figure 12).
you can use the slip roll to create a bend with the
correct radius so that the two ends meet, forming
a 6" diameter cylinder (see figure 13).

once you have the necessary workpiece length,
follow the steps below to create the cylinder.
In the following step, always err on the
side of making the cylinder too large rather
than too small. It is easy to decrease the
radius of a cylinder later, but very difficult
to increase the radius.
Note: The method for creating a specific radius
for a cylinder is a trial-and-error process. Due to
the many variations among metal workpieces,
no single positioning will create the same curve
on all materials. We recommend that you experi-
ment with scrap material before using the actual
workpiece until you find the settings that will
achieve your desired cylinder.
3. rotate the hand crank clockwise to feed the
workpiece until it is approximately half way
through the rollers.
To create a cylinder:
4. rotate the radius adjustment knobs coun-
terclockwise to raise the rear roller for the
desired cylinder radius, as illustrated in
figure 15.
1. Use the thickness adjustment knobs to adjust
the height of the upper roller so that you can
place the workpiece between the upper and
lower rollers, as illustrated in figure 14.
Note: You must turn the radius adjustment
knobs in equal amounts so the rear roller
is always parallel with the other rollers.
Otherwise, a larger radius will be created
on one end of the workpiece than the other,
resulting in a cone or spiral shape.
